When it comes to sex, there are so many more possibilities than penile-vaginal intercourse. For many couples anal intercourse is a great way to explore sexuality and switch it up in the bedroom. There is some stigma around heterosexual men who enjoy receiving anal stimulation. The word pegging was created to unlink anal sex for men from gay sex. Pegging can be a fun way to exchange power roles and differentials in the sexual relationship.
People might wonder why a man would want to be penetrated by a woman. The prostate is a walnut sized gland that transports the sperm through ejaculatory duct to the urethra when the man is about to reach orgasm. The prostate plays an essential role in the pleasure men receive when they orgasm!
The only way to reach the prostate is through the anus, which also has a multitude of nerve endings. Beyond physical pleasure it can also feel good mentally. Men are often expected to constantly be in control as the aggressor, in everyday life and in the bedroom. This is a lot of pressure and can sometimes wear men down. Giving up that control can be a wonderful release.
By allowing the woman to become penetrator, pegging allows the man to no longer conform to some pressures of masculinity. Pegging can also be pleasurable mentally and physically if you have a specific type of dildo as well. Just as it is mentally pleasurable for the man to become the submissive, the woman can get a lot of enjoyment out of being in control as the penetrator.
It can be just as liberating for the woman to take on this role reversal because of her gender role expectations in society. In a world where men often have the upper hand, it can be extremely cathartic to be in control of one.
